Tundras live: Dumb Dad Jokes, Incorrect Opinions, and Relationship Advice.

See those that rise should be bringing logical thought to our discussions, so that the dumb-dumbs here (like myself) can grow and learn

Seriously, though... sooooooo much of this about it being a 'gateway'

It's the state's in this case (california's) way of saying, 'Just the tip'...

and those other parts you speak of, sound a whole lot like something else folks said won't be happening here....

We just got the fear mongering email yesterday (as our state works its way through a legislative session).... 'Hey, I know we haven't fixed roads, but we need to... Uhhhh, EVs are killing tax revenue.... Uhhhhh, if we don't raise taxes on gas (let's say .60/gallon), those roads aren't going to get fixed.... which means longer commute times; potential for road closures; longer police response times; longer times stuck at accidents, etc...

I just don't understand how I'm required to adjust and operate within my own personal budget and 'make due' w/what I got....

yet the state doesn't

PS>>> When you spend a majority of your money on programs to support folks that aren't contributing to the program by taking money from budget line items (such as infrastructure) THAT'S A PROBLEM...

 

WTH kinda response is that???

Here, I've got one for you... 'Take off hoser'





PS>>>

 

hence, my "redistribution" comment.

Stevie Wonder can see that.

 

Dire Wolves.


WTF!


that's some Jurassic park shit right there.....

 

Texas fixed the EV vs. ICE road tax problem by levying a $200/yr EV tax. No additional tax on gas. I know CA intends it to be a bit punitive for people buying gas cars, and they can fv(k right off with that.

 

Just wrapped up that episode of the Rogan podcast...Very interesting guest and the implications of what they are doing will be felt throughout the rest of human history moving forward...

It's episodes like these that I like so much about the Rogan podcast...I tend to skip the episodes with the comedians/actors/musicians/political commentators as they aren't that interesting to me.

 

Take off to the great white north. It's a beauty way to go.

 

Ditto

 

What assumption did I make? Where did I assume I knew you well enough to declare your knowledge of sushi, or anything for that matter?

 

Of all the topics that would devolve into a multi-page discussion, I didn't expect sushi to be so hotly debated...For the record, I enjoy the full spectrum of sushi/sashimi from grocery store items all the way to gourmet restaurants. You can definitely taste the difference in quality vs price being paid when taking a step back and examining the full spectrum of what is being sold as "sushi" today. Maybe to a sushi purist that makes me an unwashed barbarian with an undeveloped pallet..

That being said, this debate about authenticity seems like a strange one. I imagine even within the sphere of sushi made in Japan, that there will be regional differences and differences between individual chef's and one restaurant in Japan vs. another. I don't think anyone would claim those differences would make one or the other less authentic...There are Japanese born and trained sushi chef's following the same techniques and using the same ingredients that their counterparts are using in Japan here in the United States. I don't see how they would be less authentic...

 

Sushi is one of those food categories that I would only eat if the person I was with knew the damn difference.

because...I don't.

I have eaten both sushi/sashimi....and it's all the same to me.

like coffee.

or beer.

or motor oil.



but not BBQ......BBQ is a whole-nuther topic.

 

I know some of you would try this..

speaking of eating....

i see all these longitivity "experts" telling us what to eat to live longer.

really?

who, amongst them has lived longer?

my Grandpa lived to 91 eating beef and sausage. he was old German.

are these grifters saying I could live to 120?

because you can't.



look at your parents....generally speaking...that's how long you will live.

 

The closest I'll get to eating sushi, sorry Charile....

 

man, look here....

I can tear up some Tuna salad.

pair it with a small bowl of cheese dip & spicy Doritos.


that's how I roll.

 

just sitting at my desk doing the company bank rec.

waiting for all these folks to post all the entries they SHOULD HAVE POSTED last week.

poor leadership.....that's what it is.

 

The problem is he's doin' it in skinny jeans

 

and he needs to get a muzzle brake (or at least port the shit out of that gun)...

and shoot it in TX...

right next to @nobodyintexas

 

I was joking with you! You may have a sushi restaurant guru near you for all I know.

 

I saw a FWY billboard about 10 years ago in Vegas that said the first human to live past 120 years is currently alive....

So, it must be true if those theories have now transitioned to the TUBE

 

add indoor shooting to my shit list.

I do not want to be in the same room as another shooter.

 

My dad was 51. My mom was 99.

 

At this point, I think we need a 'thread reset'...

We've lost ability to joke around w/each other and feel accepted no matter what are differences are...
